@yaorenliu I just looked at a YouTube video- easy peasy. I didn't have the timer mode selected and was trying to use liveview which doesn't work. The finer point of Nikon speak are coming slowly but I am tenacious.
@kvphoto Thank you a lot. I was moving my camera around to try and get slightly different angles and got really lucky. I am really hooked now that I learned how to set my camera up for multiples properly.
